March 9, 2010, 14 years ago
Australia's Riot Entertainment has announced that Season Of Mist have joined their family.
The French label is home to pioneering bands such as MAYHEM, CYNIC and ROTTING CHRIST and have recently added the mighty DILLINGER ESCAPE PLAN and MORBID ANGEL to their roster. Riot’s first SOM release will be Dillinger Escape Plan’s Option Paralysis on March 26th.
Commented Michael Berberian, Season Of Mist CEO
“I’m glad to be working with Riot now because each Midem for a few years now I’ve been afraid that John Howarth would kick my ass – even more so since I’ve seen the wrestler, Mickey Rourke just looks like John with a wig.. Scary thoughts! More seriously, they showed genuine interest in our catalog and understand the music. They have a great team, Chris Maric is known to be a promo machine in the business, so we’re looking forward to working with them and hopefully stepping up our label profile down under!”Commented John Howarth: Riot CEO
“I am really pleased to be now finally working with Michael and the Season of Mist team. We have been chasing them for many years now and to finally land a deal in the midst of exciting times for Season Of Mist is a coup for Riot. They have a great catalog, are very innovative when it comes to packaging and Michael’s vision to move forward with his label and sign key artists are all hugely positive elements. We have worked with The Dillinger Escape Plan for many years via albums and touring and to be working with them again is great. The same for Morbid Angel a band I have huge respect for! Things look good for Season Of Mist and we are proud to be on board.”For more info visit www.season-of-mist.com.
